Matías Kranevitter now knows how it feels to wear Atlético de Madrid’s shirt. The Argentinian footballer has been presented this afternoon at the Vicente Calderón Stadium. Our new player was accompanied at the event by Enrique Cerezo, Chairman of the Club, José Luis Pérez Caminero, Sporting Director, family and friends.

Then came the turn of our new player, who began by thanking Enrique Cerezo: "I would like to thank the words of the Chairman. I am very happy to be here in a Club like this. I was very eager to come. It has taken some months for me to be here and I want to thank the affection of the people. I'll give my all for this shirt."

In addition, our player was asked about the possibility of having minutes this Wednesday: "I feel I’m able to play. I believe that the trust of my teammates is very important for me. They have demonstrated it to me from day one. If I get to play, I will be very happy and will give my all because it’s a very important match."
